I think they would really benefit from paraphrasing or reflecting in a journal what they learned or heard. The problem I have is lack of time to read all the journals. skippyjohn joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06743211062918059060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6868358749457978092.post-65754127092851476422013-02-15T10:11:38.843-08:002013-02-15T10:11:38.843-08:00On pages 38-40 I like that they state questioning ...On pages 38-40 I like that they state questioning in the heart of learning. If we don't question ourselves then we are not continuing the learning process. I like how on page 39 they discussed the four types of math questions. It is a way to look at my own questioning terms throughout my lesson so I can move my learners forward.

For example :Ann had the pattern 18,14,10,6. What is the rule Ann used to make the pattern. Then you follow up with the open ended quesiton: Explain why the number 4 will not be in Ann's pattern. And then :Create a new pattern with the same rule.

"What did you notice?" "What made you think that?" Is it as simple as making sure "you " is in the question? <br />What do "you" think? <br />See... I have no idea.<br />Also the author challenges us not to just be concerned with our questioning abilities, but are we also teaching the children how to be "astute" questioners. She feels this leads to skillful problem solving.<br />Do "you" agree with her?<br />Again...no idea.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16582334321668903110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6868358749457978092.post-17430582997362575082013-01-29T12:15:20.910-08:002013-01-29T12:15:20.910-08:00Pg. 39, states that good questioning strategies ar...Pg. 39, states that good questioning strategies are when the answer is open-ended, not black and white. Is there a pattern here? Will this always work? I like these two models for varied questions as it proposes the student think beyond black and white. I think too often we as teachers, just ask the same questions, where we are looking for one answer. This does not really give the student the opportunity to think in his or her own way. I can think of many times when a student can solve a problem differently than the conventional way and sometimes their answer can touch another student! It is a great experience to observe!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
